Bangladesh performed brilliantly against Afghanistan in the crucial match of the Asia Cup.
After winning the toss, Bangladesh batted first and managed to score 334 runs on the scoreboard for 5 wickets in the allotted fifty overs. Two Bangladeshi batsmen have scored centuries in this match. Of the five wickets lost by Bangladesh, Bangladesh lost three wickets through run outs and the remaining 2 wickets were picked up by the Afghanistan bowlers. Afghanistan need 335 runs to win.
Since Bangladesh managed to set a big target against Afghanistan in the first innings, Bangladesh will definitely want to beat Afghanistan by a big margin, because if Bangladesh can't beat Afghanistan by a big margin, going to the next round of the Asia Cup will be a very difficult equation for Bangladesh.

Today's match is very important for Bangladesh and Bangladesh must win today's match even with more NRR. If Bangladesh can beat Afghanistan in today's match and if Sri Lanka can beat Afghanistan in the match between Sri Lanka and Afghanistan then Bangladesh will have a chance to qualify. To say that the real task for Bangladesh is to win today's match. However, if Bangladesh's opening pair plays badly, then it becomes very difficult for Bangladesh to form a big partnership with the next batsmen.
Rashid Khan a master of spin had an unexpected day giving up 66 runs in his 10-over performance against Bangladesh during the Asia Cup 2023 match without taking a wicket. Despite this Bangladesh was still able to score an outstanding 334-5 in the stipulated 50 overs. Mehdi Hasan Miraj and Nazmul Hasan Shanto who formed a great partnership and led their side to a dominant position, were the standout players for Bangladesh. What a magnificent hundred from Mehidy Hasan Miraz and Nazmul Hasan Shanto. While Naim and Tawhid Hridoy only played for a short while, Bangladesh overall batting performance in today match 334 Posted demonstrated their impressive form.

Bangladesh team has performed very well with Mehdi Hasan Miraj and Nazmul Hasan Shanto playing a key role. These two batsmen tied the knot at the crucial moment of Bangladesh's game. And two batsmen successfully scored centuries which is the biggest income for Bangladesh team. Bangladesh's high run count today was largely due to the fact that the wickets were kept on the field till the end, which helped the Bangladesh team to score 334 runs. Afghanistan team will be under a lot of pressure today because they will be under threat while scoring so many runs. I think for today's famous performance Bangladesh team will definitely win because the bowling line of Bangladesh team is very strong.

Bangladesh vs Afghanistan, today's fourth match of Asia Cup, Bangladesh team is in great form in batting first innings. The batting line of the Bangladesh team is very good in today's match. Bangladesh team batsmen Nadeem and Tawhid Hridoy did not last much time on the field. Mehdi Hasan Miraj and Nazmul Hasan Shanto are playing great innings. Nazmul Hasan Shanto and Mehdi Hasan Miraj's great partnership, so far the score of Bangladesh team is 231-2(40). Looking at the game, it is believed that Bangladesh team is likely to score 300+ runs today. Bowling line of Afghanistan team bowlers is very weak. Afghanistan team bowlers have not taken any wicket except two wickets in 40 overs so far.

The 4th match of the Asia Cup between Bangladesh and Afghanistan has started in Lahore Cricket Stadium. Bangladesh won the toss and decided to bat first which is a good decision the current score of the Bangladesh team is 132 runs in a loss of 2 wickets in 25 overs. Bangladesh batted well especially Mehidy Hasan scoring a well deserved half century in 67 balls with the partnership of Najmul Hossain Shanto who is playing at 36 runs in 44 balls. Mujeeb Ur Rahman picked 1 wickets of Mohammad Naim at 28 score and Gulbadin Naib also picked wickets of Towhid Hridoy at duck. Rashid Khan didn't pick any wickets in 4 overs by giving only 17 runs and bowling 1st over maiden. The way Bangladesh team is playing differently and has a good chance to win this match against Afghanistan if they can set a big target of 260 plus Runs that a big target on Lahore. Bangladesh has some quality bowlers they can defend in total and if Afghanistan wins this match Bangladesh will be out of Asia Cup 2023.
Bangladesh won the toss and decided to bat. Bangladesh have so far collected 231 runs in 40 overs with the loss of 2 wickets. Today Bangladesh batted great, Najmul Hossain Shanto batted great 87 runs unbeaten, Mehidy Hasan Miraz 98 runs unbeaten. Afghanistan's bowling was not good today. The way Bangladesh are batting, it seems they can score 290+ runs. If they can score 290 plus runs, Bangladesh will have a little more chance of winning.

It's a steady start from Bangladesh till now. Its an important game for both teams specially for Bangladesh, they can't afford to lose this. If Bangladesh lost today's game there chances of making it to next round will be gone. Seems like Bangladesh will score around 300 runs today and if they are able to give target of 300 then it will be difficult for Afghanistan to chase that.
Bangladesh is really playing well in this match. They have already got 199 runs so far and have played 34.2 overs. They have only lost two wickets. That is definitely a great performance from them so far. Some people are a little surprised to see Mehedi miraz performing so well as an opener. But I am actually not so surprised because I knew that he is definitely a good player and he has the potential to be the opener of Bangladesh cricket team. Right now they are going so well. He and Shanto are currently playing in the middle. And they do not seem to be facing any problems right now.

Anyway Mehdi Hasan Miraj will be a star for Bangladesh as he is a good bowler, good batsman and good fielder and a good opener batting today. But if Bangladesh uses him as an opener then it will definitely be a positive point for Bangladesh. Bangladesh have been looking for a good opener for several years but haven't been able to find the perfect one. Mehdi Hasan Miraj is likely to fill that opener's spot.
If Mehdi Hasan Miraj can fill the place of opener Tamim Iqbal then Bangladesh's batting line will be quite strong and if Mehdi Hasan Miraj fills Tamim's place then surely another good all rounder can play in Mehdi Hasan Miraj's place.

The problem is we haven't tried them in top positions before. Miraj opened before, but the place is not permanent, as we know. Once again, this guy showing that he has the capability to bat at the top positions, and he can perform well there. Most of the time, these batters do not get enough chances to prove themselves. Miraz already played some winning knocks for Bangladesh.
Mehedi got the chance to open because Sakib wanted to mix the Left-hand and Right-hand combination. Good to see that Miraz paid off and performed well. He is already at 90 mark and I hope he will get his 2nd Century of his career!

Bangladesh has already placed themselves on the edge of the abyss as they started the Asia Cup with a loss against Sri Lanka. Even if we say the situation now, it will not be much wrong that Bangladesh has already fallen into the ditch. With a lot of difficulty, something is hanging on in the mission of the Asia Cup. All hope of Bangladesh ends when they lose their second match against Afghanistan. Despite a crushing defeat against the Afghans, the Tigers must be lost in the abyss. Have to take farewell from the Asia Cup. Standing in such a situation, the red-green representatives are going to go down on a mission to sustain their existence in the Asia Cup against Afghanistan on Sunday (September 3). The match will be played at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore at 3:30 pm Bangladesh time. Due to the bad loss against Sri Lanka, there is no other way for Bangladesh to win against Afghanistan. Because Sri Lanka and Afghanistan will be confirmed for super four from B-group if they lose this match. Then the last match of the group stage against the Lankans and Afghans will become only a regulation match.
Today's match is very important for Bangladesh and Bangladesh must win today's match even with more NRR. If Bangladesh can beat Afghanistan in today's match and if Sri Lanka can beat Afghanistan in the match between Sri Lanka and Afghanistan then Bangladesh will have a chance to qualify. To say that the real task for Bangladesh is to win today's match. However, if Bangladesh's opening pair plays badly, then it becomes very difficult for Bangladesh to form a big partnership with the next batsmen.Bangladesh dropped Mohammad Naim and Mehedi Miraj in their openers today. Miraj is not experienced enough for the opening position. He usually bats at number 6/7. However, the two openers of Bangladesh are performing brilliantly today. Bangladesh did not lose a single wicket in 9 overs and they collected 54 runs. The team collected an average of 6 runs per over.
Although Mehdi is not an opener batsman, he is performing well today. Mehdi is batting very responsibly. He is still unbeaten with 65 runs. Although Mehdi's strike rate is not good enough. Still his batting is very good. Mehdi Miraj scored 65 runs and Shanto remained unbeaten with 44 runs. Bangladesh collected 151 runs in 28.3 overs losing 2 wickets. My guess is 280 is probably the target the team can deliver. If Bangladesh can somehow provide a target of 300 runs then Bangladesh will win today. Because there are several excellent spin bowlers in Bangladesh's squad. Bangladesh's bowling line-up is quite strong today.

Asia Cup 4th Match, Group B, Bangladesh vs Afghanistan. Bangladesh team won the toss and started batting in today's match. Today's match is a very important match for the Bangladesh team to survive in the Asia Cup mission. If Bangladesh team can win today's match against Afghanistan. Then the Bangladesh team can get the opportunity to play in the Super Four of the Asia Cup. And if they are unfortunately defeated, then they will have to withdraw from the Asia Cup like this time. Bangladesh's batting is very good at the beginning of today's match. The two openers of the Bangladesh team are batting at a fast pace. So far the score of Bangladesh team has collected 54 runs without losing any wicket in 9 overs. Now let's see how many runs the Bangladesh team can score after finishing the first innings
Bangladesh's second match today Bangladesh lost the first match very badly. But in today's match against Afghanistan they are playing very well so far. 104 runs in 20 overs and lost 2 wickets so this is a good signal for Bangladesh. It is estimated that Bangladesh can probably collect up to 260-300 runs. And if they can score like that, I think Bangladesh will win today's match. Shakib Al Hasan is yet to play so more surprises are waiting for Bangladesh.

Bangladesh already lost two wickets. They lost first wicket at 60 runs and the second they lost at 63 runs. And now they are at 73 runs. And the CRR is 5.44. So if they keep stand on the pitch and will play 50 overs so Bangladesh can go above 300 runs. But now they lost two wickets and they are in pressure now. So let's see how Afghanistan will perform.

Looks like @JSRAW was bang-on when he stated that this match was India vs Pakistan vs Rain and rain ultimately won at the end of the day. I wish odds were available for rain so that we could bet on it.
Another potentially cracker of a match got washed out. If it wasn't for rain, I think that this match would have gone right down to the wire.
Well, look at the bright side.Another potentially cracker of a match got washed out. If it wasn't for rain, I think that this match would have gone right down to the wire.
The Indian team got a fine batting practice against a quality seam attack. A couple of new guys Gill//Kishan experienced a pressure match against Pakistan for the first time and one of em showed his class.
September 03, 2023, 05:31:51 AM
No matter how good the Bangladesh team starts, I have no confidence in this team's performance. When they start losing wickets, they lose a few wickets at a time. And we see such a scenario in almost every match. We saw a scene in today's match. Bangladesh's opening pair got off to an excellent start. But Bangladesh lost their first wicket by 60 runs. Mohammad Naim was dismissed after collecting 28 runs. And in the very next over, Bangladesh lost the wicket of Towhid Hridoy. He could not collect any runs. Mujeeb and Gulbadin Naib picked up two wickets. If Bangladesh muster less than 280 then I don't see a chance for them to win.

Bangladesh vs Afghanistan Group B match will be interesting, both teams are good amount of strength. But today's match is Afghanistan's first match and Bangladesh's second match, Bangladesh lost their first match against Sri Lanka. However, according to how well Bangladesh can perform against Afghanistan today, they will be selected for the Asia Cup. And if Bangladesh can't perform well then they must be out of the Asia Cup because they lost the first match against Sri Lanka and if they lose the second match against Afghanistan they will definitely be eliminated. However, today's match will be likely to be won by Bangladesh as they will never want to drop out of the Asia Cup, and accordingly they will play well on the field. And Bangladesh is likely to win against Afghanistan, but it is difficult to predict which team will win today's match as both teams are in good form at present.
